The Inking Spot of Crain Creations

KCC: #480, Winter

Buongiorno from Florence, Italy!  Happy Thursday.  This week's Krafty Chicks Challenge twist is WINTER.

For my card this week I colored this super cute CAFFEINATED REINDEER (and coordinating die, The Rabbit Hole Designs).  Is he not the cutest EVER?!?!?!?  I colored him up with some Copics and then added some snowflake dies & bakers twine!  If you haven't seen this stamps set yet, you NEED to!!!  The reindeer is WAY cute, but the sentiments are awesome!

KCC: #479, Black & Orange

Happy Friday-eve!!  I'm the Hostess for this week's Krafty Chicks challenge and our theme twist is BLACK & ORANGE!  This week I used the super spooky PUMPKIN HAIR DON'T CARE stamp set (Rabbit Hole Designs) and used the TROPICAL FIESTA Watercolor Marker set (Altenew) to color it all in.

I wanted something a little more "glowy" for the eyes so I used some LIMONCELLO SHIMMERZ there.  I also used some BERRYLICIOUS SHIMMERZ in a few flowers (I love the sparkle!).  The layout for my card uses this week's Mojo Sketch by Julee!

KCC: #476, Be-Witched!

Good morning, happy Thursday!  We are certainly getting in to the "October Spirit" at the hen house!  This week's theme twist is BE-WITCHED!  For this week's card I used a new set called HEX-YEAH! (Rabbit Hole designs) and paired it up with Julee's Mojo Monday sketch!

I don't remember which paper pad this is, but I've had it for awhile now and it's the only Halloween paper I have... how is that even possible?!?!?!?!?  lol  Anyway, I colored miss Witch-y with Copics and then I went over her dress and shoes with a Nuvo AQUA SHIMMER GLITTER GLOSS... I so LOVE this stuff!  It adds a fab shimmer without ruining or distorting your coloring underneath!

I absolutely LOVE the sentiments in this set!  Can ya see the glittery in the patterned paper??  LOVE!!!

KCC: #470, Just a Sentiment

Happy, happy Thursday yall!  Hope you are having a wonderful week.  This week's challenge twist  over at Krafty Chicks is JUST A SENTIMENT, interpret as you wish ;-)  For my card I focused on words and not "art/images".

Recently Altenew put this Caps Bold Alphabet on sale (like HUGE on sale, maybe 40ish% or something?), anyway it was enough that if I only used the set once in a blue moon it'd be worth it... but WOW I LOVE these dies!  They are such a fab size, LOTS of great ideas for this set!!!!  So those dies were my "starting point"!

I needed something behind those letters to make them POP, it had to be "pretty" but not pull away from those letters.  While I was "shopping" at Altenew, this Cozy Flannel Cover die caught my eye... and it was perfect for this card!  I started with some watercolor paper and had some "smooshing" fun with Shimmerz Paints!

I love the colors and I love the way they play together!  A very pretty, and shimmery background that let's the "HEY" still be the focus!.  I have fallen in LOVE with the "sassy" sentiment sets over at RABBIT HOLE DESIGNS, this one is called Sassy Sentiments.

That's all I've got for ya, be sure to check out what the rest of the Chicks have been up to,
